About this trial

This trial is an investigator-initiated, single-arm, open-label Phase Ib/II study to observe the safety, tolerability, PK/PD characteristics, immunogenicity, and the efficacy of SYS6020 injection in participants with relapsed/refractory multiple sclerosis. The study plans to enroll participants with progressive or relapsing multiple sclerosis.

The recommended dosing regimen is as follows: a single administration dose of 45×10\^6 CAR-T cells/kg (allowing a fluctuation of ±20%), administered once a week for 6 consecutive doses.

To ensure participant safety, this study will establish a Safety Monitoring Committee (SMC). A staggered enrollment and dosing strategy will be adopted in the early stage. Two early safety evaluation will be established (after the first 3 enrolled participants complete their first 3 infusions of SYS6020, and after the first 3 enrolled participants complete their first 6 infusions of SYS6020) for comprehensive assessment.

The study plans to enroll 10-15 participants. Once the enrollment of 10-15 participants is complete, a comprehensive assessment may be conducted based on the actual progress of the study and combined with existing data. This will fully evaluate the safety, preliminary efficacy, and PK/PD/ADA data of the enrolled participants. If the overall safety of the participants is manageable, preliminary efficacy shows a positive trend, and there are value and necessity for further exploration, expanding the number of participants may be considered (up to a maximum of 25 participants in total).

Eligibility criteria

Qualifiers

1. Male or female participants aged 18-65 years at the time of signing informed consent.

For progressive MS: evidence of worsening disability, such as an increased Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) score.

Absolute lymphocyte count ≥0.3 × 10⁹/L, absolute neutrophil count ≥1.0 × 10⁹/L, platelet count ≥50 × 10⁹/L, and hemoglobin ≥80 g/L, without red blood cell or platelet transfusion or colony-stimulating factor within 7 days before testing;

Total bilirubin ≤2 × upper limit of normal (ULN), and alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase ≤3 × ULN;

Disqualifiers

1. Uncontrolled significant chronic disease that, in the investigator's opinion, may increase the participant's risk.

Clinically significant ventricular arrhythmia, second- or third-degree atrioventricular block, or another serious rhythm/conduction disorder;

Resting QT interval corrected using Fridericia's formula >450 msec for men or >470 msec for women;

Acute coronary syndrome, congestive heart failure, or another Grade ≥3 cardiovascular event within 6 months before first administration;
